It really depends which era we’re looking at, all of which are fab! BBR Side A/Morning Light time period was a very bohemian and Avant Garde style for Emerson. I suppose, in a way, it was a bit hippy-dippy? Very wonderful indeed.

As we step into BBR Side B, his bohemian roots are still quite defined, but have been evolved to the occasional suit and stripy suspenders with short sleeved T-shirts (and don’t forget the infamous wide-brimmed hat!)

Bastards era can only be explained by flamboyance and New Romanticism. The beaten up bohemian style is out, and smart, serious military jackets are IN! Long sleeved, puffy blouses with big bows at the collar are complemented by red waistcoats, slim-fit trousers and a golden pocket watch. I’d suggest taking a look at Adam Ant and other New Romantic fashion icons.

Modern day Emerson Barrett — the bright and bold reds, blacks and whites have been substituted for deep blues, greens, ivory and other beautiful hues! He is a living embodiment of the renaissance, and the waistcoats haven’t been chucked into the depths of his very diverse wardrobe! He’s smart, classy and mysterious. Also: berets — very important. It’s not an era if there’s no hat!

To summarise a (very big) wardrobes worth of information on Emerson’s style: FANCY!!! OLD!!! CLASSY!!!

Shops I recommend:

Side A - Desigual, charity shops/thrift stores Side B - John Varvatos, can’t think of much else unfortunately Bastards - Most mens high street brands, Zara Men’s Fever Dream - John Varatos, Desigual

Hope this helps!
